Actress Meera Reveals Her Fee for Government-Funded Films, Sparks Online Debate

Veteran Pakistani actress Meera has once again made headlines after revealing what she says is her fee for appearing in government-funded films. Speaking during a recent interview, the actress claimed that she charges Rs. 5 million for projects financed by the government.

Meera also made an unusual suggestion, saying that if the government is unable to pay her fee in cash, it could instead offer ownership of one or two cinema halls as compensation. According to her, such an arrangement could not only benefit artists but also contribute to the revival of Pakistan’s cinema industry.

During the interview, the actress emphasized that the local film industry needs more than quality productions to flourish. She said greater investment in modern cinemas, improved infrastructure, and long-term support for filmmakers is essential to restore the country’s cinema culture and attract larger audiences.

Following the interview, a short video clip of Meera’s remarks quickly went viral across social media, prompting mixed reactions from users. Some viewers found her comments entertaining and appreciated her candid style, while others expressed surprise at her proposed compensation and questioned the practicality of receiving cinema ownership instead of monetary payment.

Meera has long been known for making bold and memorable public statements, many of which have gone viral over the years. Her latest remarks have once again generated widespread discussion among fans and social media users.

While her comments have attracted attention, they reflect her personal views and proposal regarding compensation for government-funded film projects rather than any official policy or arrangement.
